Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

generate-release-notes scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Generate Release Notes

Produce release notes from the commits/PRs merged since the last release. Group by change type, keep entries user-facing, and follow the exact template below so every release reads the same way.

Steps

  1. Find the range since the last release tag/version:
git fetch --tags
git log "$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)"..HEAD --pretty=format:'%s (%h)'
  1. Read the version from package.json and today's date.
  2. Map Conventional Commit types to sections (omit empty sections):
    • feat -> Features
    • fix -> Bug Fixes
    • perf/refactor -> Improvements
    • docs/chore/build/ci/test -> Maintenance
    • any !/BREAKING CHANGE -> Breaking Changes (list first)
  3. Rewrite each line as a concise, user-facing sentence (not the raw commit). Keep the short hash in parentheses. Drop noise (merge commits, release bumps).

Template

## vX.Y.Z - YYYY-MM-DD

### Breaking Changes

- <only if any>

### Features

- <user-facing description> (<hash>)

### Bug Fixes

- <user-facing description> (<hash>)

### Improvements

- <user-facing description> (<hash>)

### Maintenance

- <user-facing description> (<hash>)

Example

Input commits:

feat(auth): add login with email and password (a1b2c3d)
feat(i18n): add Arabic translations (e4f5g6h)
fix(theme): persist dark mode across reloads (i7j8k9l)
refactor(api): simplify query client setup (m0n1o2p)
chore(deps): bump vite to 7 (q3r4s5t)
chore(release): v1.2.0 [skip ci] (u6v7w8x)

Output:

## v1.2.0 - 2026-06-01

### Features

- Log in with email and password (a1b2c3d)
- Arabic language support (e4f5g6h)

### Bug Fixes

- Dark mode now persists across page reloads (i7j8k9l)

### Improvements

- Simplified React Query client setup (m0n1o2p)

### Maintenance

- Upgraded Vite to v7 (q3r4s5t)

Note: the chore(release) bump commit is intentionally excluded.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
